Configuring User Access
The router configuration process allows for a maximum of 50 user names,
passwords, and levels of permission. Each user needs to be assigned a password
and level of permission. There are three levels of permission:
Administration,
Operation,
and
Monitoring
.
For more information, see the add user command.
Technical Support Access
If you are the system administrator, when you add a new user for the first time, you
are asked if you want to add Technical Support access. If you answer yes,
Technical Support is granted the same access privileges that you have as system
administrator.
The password for this account is automatically selected by the software and is
known by your service representative. This password can be changed using the
change user command; however, if you do change the password, customer service
cannot provide remote support. For additional information on the use of the change
user command, see “Change” on page 59.
Configuring Spare Interfaces
Occasionally, you may need to configure a new interface along with its bridging and
routing protocols without having to restart the device. You can accomplish this by
configuring a number of
spare interfaces
on your device. Spare interfaces are
useful if:
v You are adding dial circuits to your device.
Use spare interfaces to add new V.25bis, V.34, or ISDN dial circuits on an
existing V.25bis, V.34, or ISDN interface.
v You are adding ATM LAN Emulation clients.
Use spare interfaces to add Token-Ring or Ethernet ATM LAN Emulation clients
to an existing ATM interface.
To configure a spare interface:
1. Access the CONFIG process by entering talk 6.
2. Configure the number of spare interfaces for the device using the set
spare-interfaces command.
3. Exit the CONFIG process by pressing Ctrl-P.
4. Restart the device.
Example:
* talk 6
Config> set spare 2
Config>
*restart
Are you sure you want to restart the gateway? (Yes or [No]) yes
When the device restarts, the spare interfaces are installed as null devices.
To use one of the spare interfaces:
1. Access the CONFIG process by entering talk 6.
